When there are pending messages on a routed queue, for example, when a home server is not down, follow the steps below to view messages on the queue. To browse the queue, it needs to be changed from a routed queue to home queue.
1). Copy the datastore files and all configuration files to a different directory or machine.
2). Change the following:
- in queues.conf, from Q@home_server to Q.
- in tibemsd.conf, change the port number in the listen parameter or remove all users from users.conf except the admin user. Enable authorization in tibemsd.conf or set the localhost in the listen parameter. For example, 127.0.0.0:7222 so other applications can not connect to this server.
3). Start EMS. The "show queue Q" command in tibemsadmin should show pending messages which can be browsed.
